Chapter 6873
Arlo had no idea that the three elders were coming to punish him, and he told Callum, "I guess Her Lordship is going to withdraw the Three Elders?"Callum nodded, "All we did was wait, but nothing has happened. It's only natural that the Three Elders will leave."Just as he finished, the three elders entered.Leading the group was Barlin, the most powerful of the trio. Upon entering, he turned to Arlo and asked with a look of resignation, "I heard that you made a terrible blunder?"Since the three elders had been sent to Nigeria, Arlo was at their beck and call, so they had become rather familiar.It was no exaggeration that they were pleased with his competence, and therefore, felt some degree of sympathy when they received the order to take his left hand.Arlo didn't expect the three elders to start with that, and he quickly said, "Yes, Elder Barlin. It seems that the mysterious foe attacked another base instead of coming here. To be honest, there was nothing I could have don
Chapter 6872
Despite Fleur's body count, she had never thought to use conventional modern weapons, let alone use a chopper's rotors for decapitation.After all, what respectable cultivator would come up with such ideas? There was no honor in it at all.That was why it frustrated her all the more that her enemy simply refused to play by the rules. It could be guns one day and helicopters the next, and who knew when they would roll out the railguns. And thus, Fleur began to feel genuine fear toward her mysterious foe deep in her heart.However, Tarlon also had a point.They had lost another base, but this was also an opportunity to turn the tables.If they seized the opportunity to identify and eliminate their enemy, they could resolve this crisis once and for all. If they missed this opportunity, finding him again would be much more difficult. After a moment of deliberation, she spoke, "Let's play this safe. Send all three elders, and I'm sure nothing will catch us by surprise. But it'd be
Chapter 6871
While Tarlon was briefly stunned that Fleur wanted to cut off Arlo's left hand, he didn't try to plead in Arlo's favor.After all, he understood that it was necessary for someone to take the blame, both to enforce Fleur's authority and also to placate her.It was simple—if something this terrible had happened but no heads were rolling, everyone would just assume that the fault lay with Fleur, and that her supposedly clever scheme had gone awry, while the enemy had turned it against her completely by skipping Nigeria and attacking Morocco instead.Thus, severing Arlo's hand would be a way of telling everyone that Arlo was the incompetent one in the issue and that he had been punished accordingly.Fleur also needed this to convince herself that the fault lay with Arlo, and not herself.So, he immediately bowed his head respectfully, "Yes, My Lord. I will inform the three elders myself."That was when he remembered something and quickly added, "By the way, I think that just sending

Tarlon gathered himself before speaking grimly, "Arlo called… The Dead Soldiers base in Morocco. It's… completely destroyed..."Fleur looked stupefied. "Morocco?!"Tarlon nodded. "Yes. I've seen videos. The base was completely destroyed."Fleur bellowed, "It must be that pest again! Shouldn't he have attacked Nigeria?!""No," Tarlon shook her head. "I've asked Arlo. The three elders have been monitoring the base in Nigeria since we began, but no one who could manipulate Reiki ever showed up. I think they must have seen through our trap and deliberately avoided Nigeria by targeting Morocco."Fleur's face was ashen as murderous intent spilled from her, and she growled, "When he saw that Nigeria was a trap, he deliberately chose Morocco because it's not that far away. They mean to provoke us! Just because they can!"Under these circumstances, Tarlon was afraid even to flatter or soften the blow. He simply nodded and said, "Yes, I agree. Our mysterious foe is stronger than we belie
Chapter 6869
At this moment, Fleur was in seclusion in her personal residence at the deepest point of her Antarctic island, over three hundred meters below sea level.Fleur had chosen to establish the Qing Eliminating Society's base in such a remote location for isolation and security, not to mention that the environment was more suitable for cultivation.Over the recent years, Fleur had rarely spent her time in extended seclusions, each lasting from a few days to several months—unlike the three elders, who remained in seclusion for years.Still, the reason Fleur avoided extended retreats wasn't because she was paranoid about a coup in the Qing Eliminating Society. It was simply the fact that she was aging, and therefore, it was actually becoming increasingly difficult for her to concentrate on her cultivation. Eighty percent of her five hundred years had already passed, and she still hadn't found the recipe for the Infinite Pill. While it might seem like she had another hundred years left, it
Chapter 6868
Therefore, it was only natural for Arlo to call Tarlon 'Gramps'.Upon hearing about the situation, Tarlon immediately demanded, "Has the mysterious foe struck again? Shouldn't he have attacked Nigeria instead?!""No!" Arlo cried, utterly aggrieved. "The mysterious foe must have seen through our plan. That’s why he never came to Nigeria, even after all this time. Although the three elders are in seclusion, they take turns using Reiki to survey the surrounding area almost every hour, and they have never noticed the presence of any cultivators. And just now, I was called about our dead soldier base in Morocco… It was destroyed, and even Penny's whereabouts are unknown..."Tarlon exclaimed, "What?! Penny Singer was there, too?! Why?! Shouldn't she be in your base?!"Arlo explained, "I just thought she should gain some experience and see the world… It was just a formality at best, but I didn't expect something like this..."Tarlon paced anxiously around the room, immediately angry and
